Remarks

Call the ExportToXlsAsync method to export TreeList data in XLS format. The method overloads allow you to write the result to a stream (ExportToXlsAsync(Stream, TreeListXlExportOptions)) or to a file downloaded to a client machine (the current overload).

The method accepts a TreeListXlExportOptions object as a parameter. You can use this parameter to set up export settings.

For additional information about data export in the TreeList component, refer to the following topic: Export Blazor TreeList Data to XLS/XLSX.

Run Demo: TreeList - Export

Example

The following example exports TreeList data to XLS format on a button click:

razor

<DxButton Text="Export to XLS" Click="ExportXls_Click" />

<DxTreeList Data="TreeListData" 
            KeyFieldName="Id" 
            ParentKeyFieldName="ParentId" 
            @ref="MyTreeList">
    <Columns>
        <DxTreeListDataColumn FieldName="Name" Caption="Task" />
        <DxTreeListDataColumn FieldName="EmployeeName" />
        <DxTreeListDataColumn FieldName="StartDate" />
        <DxTreeListDataColumn FieldName="DueDate" />
    </Columns>
</DxTreeList>

@code {
    ITreeList MyTreeList { get; set; }

    async Task ExportXls_Click() {
        await MyTreeList.ExportToXlsAsync("ExportResult");
    }
}

Export Specifics and Limitations

Content of templates is not exported.
Excel permits up to seven nesting levels in outlines. Deeper nesting levels are exported at the seventh nesting level.
The TreeList exports custom summaries (implemented in the CustomSummary event) as plain text.
Data columns anchored to the right edge become regular columns, while columns anchored to the component’s left edge remain frozen.
CSS classes applied to the TreeList and its elements do not affect the exported document’s appearance. Handle the CustomizeCell event to customize the output table.
In on demand data loading mode, an export operation forces the component to load all data.

If the TreeList is bound to a GridDevExtremeDataSource object, the following limitations apply:

Filtering and sorting may differ in the resulting document because export depends on database collation.
You must specify the KeyFieldName property to export only selected rows.
